摘要：

Acute pulmonary edema developed in two young, previously healthy women immediately after the intravenous administration of contrast media. The pulmonary edema, rare in young persons, could not be explained by classical anaphylaxis, contrast media overdose, sodium and fluid overload, or acute myocardial infarction. A nonimmunologic osmotic mechanism causing reversible pulmonary capillary leak might explain the clinical events observed in both patients. Both responded to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), indicating the possible utility of CPAP in treating pulmonary caillary-leak contrast reactions.
